Hero Dog Dayko Dies After Rescuing At Least 7 People From Ecuador Earthquake Rubble

 

A rescue dog credited with saving at least seven people from the rubble of the April 16 earthquake in Ecuador has died.

 

After days of searching for quake survivors, Dayko suffered heatstroke last week which then led to a heart attack, the City of Ibarra Fire Department said on Facebook.

 

The organization posted pictures of the 4-year-old Labrador in tribute to his heroism in the aftermath of the magnitude 7.8 temblor, which left at least 650 people dead:

Mournful tweeters paid tribute to a police dog killed Wednesday in a raid on a French suburb where several suspects in Friday's deadly attacks in Paris were hiding.

 

 

The hashtag #JeSuisChien quickly spread through Twitter in honor of seven-year-old Diesel. Police said that the Belgian Malinois pup was "essential" to the operation.
